Go: The live broadcast queen launched a gorgeous rebellion against the dog

like……

A Rui Zhao-like existence?

Hearing this, Cheng Yuyang was slightly stunned.

But before he could fully digest the meaning of this sentence, Song Zhitai continued speaking.

"Allow me to explain an objective fact to you first - I wonder if everyone present here knows what the results of all the top players in Go quick games lasting no longer than 'one hour, one minute' in the past year are?
“Let me take the top five players in the third-party rating as an example!
“First, Xiong Siyi, 15th Dan, 9 wins and 62.5 losses, winning rate %;

“Sun Yi, 19 wins and 5 losses, winning rate 79.2%;

“Lei Qi, 32 wins and 7 losses, winning rate 82.1%;

“Liu Shixian, 32 wins and 3 losses, winning rate 91.4%;

"Finally... it's Rui Zhao. Her results aren't that exaggerated...

"...72 wins and 0 losses, a winning rate of 100%!"

After this was said, there was a small discussion at the scene.

The referees all have a rough idea of ​​what it means in sports competitions that a team has not lost a single game despite having played about twice as many games as the second place.

However, Song Zhitai remained calm and continued to explain at his own pace:
“Hmm…72 wins and 0 losses!
"Haha, it seems that without us noticing, China's 'Rapid Chess Athena' has won 72 games in a row on the rapid chess stage!

"So, how does this record rank in the history of Go?

"I specifically looked it up. In history, except for Rui Zhao, the longest winning streak for men in unlimited rapid chess tournaments above the national level was created by Liu Shixian, 22th dan, with consecutive wins this year, which is less than one-third of Rui Zhao's winning streak. In fact, this record was broken by Rui Zhao in the men's individual final of the Asian Games that just ended!

"By the way, because there is the Asian Games this year, the winning records of several top chess players include some matches in the Asian Games with players from outside of China, Japan, South Korea and Taiwan - objectively speaking, these matches are not very valuable because the opponents are too weak.

"If this record is limited to playing against high-level players from China, Japan, Korea and Taiwan, then Rui Zhao's winning streak will be reduced to 66 games, and Liu Shixian's record will be reduced to 16 games, less than a quarter of Rui Zhao's!!!"

At the end of this sentence, Song Zhitai deliberately raised his voice to make it sound more powerful and penetrating, and the effect was immediate.

In such a strong contrast, when the words came to this, the members of the arbitration committee who had been showing an attitude of "I want to see what new tricks you can come up with for me" finally changed their expressions, and a noisy sound mixed with various exclamations and discussions rang out in the conference room.

Seeing that his evidence had finally attracted the attention of the arbitration committee members who were originally planning to sit there and watch the joke, South Korean representative Song Zhitai raised his voice, as if he was getting more courageous:
"As we all know, no matter which event, the winning streak record in top competitions increases exponentially with each additional game! So normally, there won't be a huge gap between the first and the second!

"For example, in the NBA, the longest winning streak is 33 consecutive wins, while the second place has 27 consecutive wins. In the four Grand Slams of tennis, the longest winning streak is 30 consecutive wins, while the second place has 22 consecutive wins.

"Take Go itself as an example. If we ignore Rui Zhao's winning streak, the subsequent winning streak ranking is actually very normal - after Liu Shixian's 16 consecutive wins, Cui Minghao's 14 consecutive wins and Lin Ruixin's 12 consecutive wins are followed.

"For example, almost all chess fans know the winning streak record of the Nongshim Cup Tournament. The first place is Liu Shixian, 9th dan, with 17 consecutive wins, and the second place is Cui Minghao, 9th dan, with 14 consecutive wins. All of the above are in line with the normal rules of sports competition.

"And you have to know that compared to basketball and tennis, which are long-lasting stalemates, Go games are very unpredictable. As long as you make a wrong move, the situation will be reversed immediately. Therefore, there is a saying that 'one wrong move can lead to a complete loss'.

"That is why, even though our country's Liu Shixian has been recognized as the strongest chess player in the past five years, he has never been able to win all the world championships in a year - there has never been a precedent in history for a single chess player to win all the world championships in a year.

"In fast-paced games, the randomness of the game is even more obvious! This is a fact recognized by the Go community!

"After understanding the above facts, dear ladies and gentlemen!

"Looking back at Rui Zhao's record of winning all 66 high-level rapid chess matches in the past year and winning all the rapid chess championships he could, how do you feel?"

There was even more discussion on the scene about Song Zhitai's question, and it seemed that more and more people were aware of the outrageous extent of Rui Zhao's performance in rapid chess competitions in the past year.

The South Korean representative also seized the opportunity decisively, and after giving the participating members a little time to imagine, he finally revealed his true intentions!
"...I can say with full responsibility that this achievement in men's Go cannot be described simply as 'first in a long time'!
"Rui Zhao's performance in the rapid chess competitions over the past year is just like her nickname 'Rapid Chess Athena', like a true god! She is completely out of the realm that normal male chess players can try to compete with!
"Undefeated in 66 high-level rapid chess tournaments throughout the year - Liang Zihao, chairman of the South Korean Chess Institute of our country, has repeatedly stated that this is simply not something that male chess players can achieve!

"The impact it has brought to the world chess community is no different from the 48km/h record set by the 'Rocket' steam locomotive in the 'Rainy Mountain Test', which far exceeds all other traditional transportation vehicles!

"Just as after that experiment, no one would think it was reasonable to race a steam locomotive against a horse-drawn carriage.

"After Rui Zhao 9th Dan achieved such a high-speed chess result that everyone would worship him as a god, we believe that we must also face up to the fact that in the fast chess format of Go competition, female players are very likely to have a clear physiological advantage over male players!

“Therefore, I ask all the committee members present here to abandon some traditional stereotypes and seriously consider our demands to maintain the basic fairness of the competition! Thank you!”

After Song Zhitai finished speaking, there was a moment of silence in the conference hall.

Obviously, many of the arbitration committee members wanted to go through the motions as quickly as possible and get rid of the South Koreans who have always had a bad reputation in the international sports arena, but in the face of Song Zhitai's series of powerful arguments, they are now a little confused. Why does this sophistry sound...

...It seems like there is some weird logic there?!

Through the live broadcast screen, Cheng Yuyang seemed to see through the thoughts of the participating arbitration committee members - because he himself had the same feeling.

However, the thought in Cheng Yuyang's mind was just a flash: Because anyone with a little common sense knows that saying that women have obvious physiological advantages over men in the Go event is completely nonsense, and cannot be believed.

“…This is pure sophistry!”

As expected, Lu Wenjie in the picture was obviously a little impatient at this time, and interrupted directly:
"Rui Zhao was able to win so many games because he is strong enough. It is the result of his hard work and sweat that he created such an amazing record! It also shows his own greatness!
"Just because she worked hard enough to get good grades, you say her grades were due to so-called 'physical advantages'?! That's ridiculous!"

However, Song Zhitai was too lazy to formally refute this statement, and simply made a joke:
"……oh!

"Then I guess the reason why steam locomotives can outperform horse-drawn carriages is because locomotive operators work much harder than horse-drawn carriage drivers?!"

There was a burst of laughter at the scene.

Gou Shuci was clearly aware at this time that Lu Wenjie was irritated by the other party's absurd method of argumentation, and he quickly leaned over and whispered a few words in his ear.

Lu Wenjie also realized that his previous rebuttal had not hit the point at all, so he quickly sorted out his thoughts and continued:

"These two things cannot be compared at all! The South Korean representative is trying to change the concept!
“The fact that steam locomotives are faster than horse-drawn carriages is based on objective physical laws and has sufficient scientific evidence behind it!
"It has always been recognized in the sports world that men have obvious advantages over women in competitive sports, and there is also a lot of scientific evidence for this!"

"...There are a lot of scientific evidence? Are the Chinese representatives serious?"

Song Zhitai chuckled at Lu Wenjie's statement, shook his head and said:

"I can understand this statement when it comes to physical exercise, because there are indeed a lot of scientific studies proving that men's muscle levels, endurance and other physical indicators are significantly higher than women's.

“However, as we all know, Go is an intellectual sport.

"Where is the research that proves that women are obviously inferior to men in terms of IQ?"

After hearing this, Lu Wenjie was speechless again - there is naturally no such "scientific proof"!
To take a step back, even if some research results do show similar trends, they will never be published publicly for the sake of political correctness.

However, Lu Wenjie was also an experienced vice chairman of the association, so he quickly reacted and said:
"…But there has never been any research to prove that women have higher IQs than men!

"What basis do you have to say that women have obvious physiological advantages over men in the game of Go?"

"good question!"

Song Zhitai still smiles:
"But I don't know if the Chinese representative still remembers: At the beginning of the hearing, you made a long speech to prove that men have always been in a clear advantage over women in the game of Go.

"Then the question is - why did the entire Go community previously recognize that men are better than women when there was no relevant scientific research to support it?"

As soon as this question was asked, the scene fell into silence again.

The three people from China exchanged looks in great surprise, and it was obvious that they had not expected the other party to ask such a question!

But Song Zhitai left this small pause, of course, not to wait for the Chinese side to think of an answer!

Seeing that the atmosphere was set, the South Korean representative decisively continued to speak, explaining for his opponent today:

"The answer... the opening rebuttal statement of the Chinese representative just now has explained it to us:

"Because men have completely overwhelmed women in the past, this conclusion can be drawn based on objective facts.

“This approach is very simple, but also very classic. It can be said that before humans developed systematic scientific research methods, they summarized and judged the development of things through objective facts and laws.

"In the absence of systematic scientific research to support it, I highly understand and agree with China's argument through this method.

“But… in this case.

"Now that Rui Zhao 9th Dan has played a god-like fast chess performance and the objective facts have changed significantly, we...

“Do we need to revise our original conclusions?” (End of this chapter)
